The two companies have co-founded Verizon Wireless, which is now the largest mobile phone company in the United States.<\/p>\n<p><b>Dividend Offering<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:VZ), which owns majority stake in the joint venture had decided to pay $7 billion as dividends, out of which Vodafone Group Plc. (NYSE: VOD) would receive $3.15 billion. This move by Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:VZ) is spoken off as a negotiating tactic to put some pressure off the partner to agree for the sale of its stake.<\/p>\n<p>Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:VZ) views to completely acquire the mobile phone company which had gained the largest market share in US and is more profitable than the landline business. Though Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:VZ) had indicated that the stake held by Vodafone Group Plc. (NYSE: VOD) would be valued at $100 billion, the two companies had not taken this deal to the table so far.<\/p>\n<p><b>Vodafone\u2019s stake<\/b><\/p>\n<p>However, Vodafone Group Plc. (NYSE: VOD) had not commented on this deal as it believes that $100 billion value for its stake in Verizon Wireless does not prove to be a favorable opening bid.
